Proverb: It’s a man’s world
Many expressions that were relevant when the boomers were in their prime are not applicable today.
One of those phrases is it’s a man’s world.
It’s a man’s world expresses the idea that society in areas like politics, business, and culture is designed and dominated by men.
Men typically held more power and influence than women.
It sounds negative, but it highlights a reality that many women have been forced to recognize and challenge.
When you hear, “It’s a man’s world,” you’re often discussing the unequal treatment of women.
For example, even today, in many workplaces, men are more likely to be promoted or earn higher salaries.
The glass ceiling has cracked, but it has not shattered yet.
Inequality leads to conversations about gender roles and the need for change.
It’s a man’s world serves as a reminder that women still face barriers that men do not.
However, it is important to note that many individuals and organizations are working hard to change this narrative.
Women’s rights movements work hard to change the truth from “It’s a man’s world” to “It was a man’s world.”
As awareness grows, more people recognize the importance of gender equality and strive to create a more balanced society.
This is when some men become scared that they are losing their dominance of society and say things like, ‘Make America Great Again.’
They say things were better in the past, when we both know that, looking back at the 1950s, things weren’t so great at all.
Looking back to a time of male leadership, we can be sure of one thing: men are responsible for 100% of the mistakes.
It was a man’s world.
It’s time women got a shot at leading the world.
Who knows?
They may be better at it.
